Lots of variety

Really lovely vegan restaurant, with friendly staff, a varied menu and new specials each day.
So good I went twice in one day!

I had the meatballs, polenta and ravioli and carrot cake. I also had a special of vegan feta stuffed vine leaves which was incredible.

Not as "vibey" as other options, but well worth the visit.

Pros: Everything

Cons: Inconsistent opening times

Delicious - you must visit!

We dined here three times during our holiday and cannot recommend it enough. Highlights were the mixed salad (so simple but such a good mix of vegetables and the light lemony dressing), the meatballs and moussaka. Perfect setting too. Go!

Pros: Varied menu, Good service, Delicious

Nice starters !

We had a very good moment there. We ordered starters only, we really enjoyed the manchourian meatballs and the roasted asparagus, clearly our favorites. The tomato meatballs and the potato cakes were really good too, the only starter we didn't like was the samossas, a bit "meh" for me.
We went back to taste the famous Vegan Souvlaki, which was nice but I was expecting a vegan tzatziki on top instead of a simple coco yoghurt. The giant wrap was really good.

Pros: Delicious starters, Friendly staff, Nice location

Outstanding food

This place is an absolute gem. My partner had been in chania before I arrived so had been to this place a few times and I think in the week I visited we went 4 times because i wanted to try as much of the menu as I could! There’s an extensive menu that has something for everyone on plus a huge specials menu! In the times we went we tried from the starters menu the meatballs, potato cakes, Manchurian balls, carrot lox, cheese filled zucchini flowers and the seared polenta. I can honestly say I’ve been dreaming about the carrot lox since I came home, it was so refreshing to eat it was amazing! Another favourite was the manchurian balls but every single thing was unreal! From the mains we tried the moussaka, boureki, lasagna, summer greens lasagna, beefless beef stew with mash. My favourite was definitely the moussaka so much so I had it twice but the beefless beef stew is one to try in its rich red wine sauce but again everything was phenomenal. The staff were all so friendly, the service was a little on the slow side but for good food like this it really doesn’t matter it’s worth it.

Get here for breakfast sandwich options!

All the menu options are delicious we tried most of them over 3 different visits during our stay, but the breakfast sandwiches are an amazing value and they don't have as many customers earlier in the day so it's a peaceful dining time.

They switch to dinner menu at noon but can ask the waiter for the breakfast menu until around 4pm. The green goddess was massive and they do really well with faux meat.

Pros: Peaceful, Breakfast value

Cons: Sometimes slow to provide water

Great restaurant!

Amazing Mezeplate..the aubergines are to die for, and the desert elevates the experienc. Very happy to have had this opportunity to eat at a fully vegan restaurant in a city we have visited many times before going vegan and not missing a thing!
Chocolate cake and lasagne were also highlights.
Also didn't understand that the carafe was not a jug of flavored water to share but a lemonade for one.

Pros: Flavorful dishes , Food not to oily, Non alcoholic - both wine red and white

Cons: Tilted ground makes some tables "interesting" , Staff is not overly friendly/welcoming/servicing

Nice all vegan place

Nice affordable all vegan place. The starters were good, but the main, portobello special, was a bit bland.

Enjoyable and near the sea

Nice vegan bistro offering traditional dishes. I would like more spices in the food but overall it was nice. Best part were the starters/mezze. Staff could be better organised.

A solid and enjoyable dinner

The great location offered an all-vegan menu. My non-vegan husband had the green risotto but thought too many kinds of green vegetables overwhelmed the dish. I enjoyed the lentil moussaka, but it would have been fine if all the dishes were smaller.

Pros: Right at the start of Old Town, Variety of dishes

Cons: Portions too large

Good vegan food but not top notch

This restaurant was good, had amazing options but the food was just good, not amazing. We had the mix mezze board which was quite hit and miss. The tofu salad was strange as the tofu was silken not firm. The beef stroganoff had amazing texture. The location of the restaurant was nice!

Amazing & fresh!

This was truly one of the best meals I have had! The produce was all local and very fresh. I am coeliac so my options were limited but the dishes I selected were light yet full of flavour, and so perfectly balanced. The staff were friendly and the location is unbeatable!

Amazing food 🌱

We went for tea one night and ordered the Moussaka and tofu salad, they were both delicious! We also went again for brunch as the food was that nice. We got the green goddess and a traditional greek sandwich which were exceptional. The staff are friendly and the ambience is lovely and relaxing. Would definitely recommend to everyone!
